Strategy
Levitation is one of the most essential properties to have; starting with Medusa's Island, there are several instances where it would be extremely helpful to be able to traverse over water, most importantly on the plane of water. The best method for doing so is a ring of levitation, followed by boots of levitation, and then this spell; the reason being that casted levitation can wear off at a critical time, throwing you into the water and causing all of your items to get wet or worse, if you drop into the middle of a large water body, drown. Still, if you have neither the ring nor the boots, this is an acceptable substitute; just remember to recast every once in a while.
Levitation doesn't really have any other uses, and you can only cast the spell at yourself. Thus once you acquire a better source of it, you can safely polypile or blank and write over this spellbook.
